We construct an entire solution $U:\mathbb{R}^2\to\mathbb{R}^2$ to the elliptic system \[ \Delta U=\nabla_uW(U), \] where $W:\mathbb{R}^2\to [0,\infty)$ is a `triple-well' potential. This solution is a local minimizer of the associated…

We study the free-boundary equation \[ \Delta u=\chi_{\{|\nabla u|>0\}} \] near the origin. We prove that, at a singular point of \(\partial\{|\nabla u|>0\}\), the quadratic blow-up is unique. As noted in \cite[Notes to Chapter 7]{PSU2012},…
We conduct an analysis of the blow up at the triple junction of three fluids in equilibrium. Energy minimizers have been shown to exist in the class of functions of bounded variations, and the classical theory implies that an interface…
